4. Naomi Campbell
The South London-bred Campbell is perhaps the most infamous of the era. At the age of seven, Campbell appeared in the music video for Bob Marley’s “Is This Love?” By 12, Campbell had also danced in Culture Club’s video for “I’ll Tumble 4 Ya” and, by 16, Campbell was featured on the cover of Elle’s British edition. In the late 1980s, Campbell formed a crew with fellow supermodels Christy Turlington and Linda Evangelista that would come to be know as the “Trinity.” Campbell had a brief singing career, releasing an album in 1994, and a modest acting career. Campbell is perhaps best known for the tumult that has surrounded the better part of her career. Campbell became addicted to cocaine and was forced to enter rehab in the late 1990s. She has also been convicted of assault on a handful of occasions. Campbell has dated a variety of men, including Robert De Niro and Mike Tyson.
